Good News, Bad News: Nets plan to play on Christmas but with 10 players in protocols

Two days till Christmas and it’s a case of good news, bad news for Brooklyn.

The good news: Steve Nash disclosed Thursday morning that James Harden, Jevon Carter and Paul Millsap are out of protocols. The bad news: David Duke Jr., Cam Thomas and Kessler Edwards have entered protocols. So the Nets still have only 10 players available for the Christmas Day extravaganza in Los Angeles vs. the Lakers.

So, two days out from Christmas Day, Nash said the plan is for the team to fly Friday and play Saturday.

“The plan is to fly to Los Angeles tomorrow and play Christmas,” Nash said.
